English Translation
40Ask them which of them can vouch for the existence of such an oath.
Explanatory translation
40If they say, “There is such a promise,” this claim is the greatest lie in the world. O Prophet! Now go ahead and ask them the reason for this conviction of theirs: Which of the polytheists will take this on and defend it? Who among them could vouch that We made such a promise? Who among them could guarantee that this conduct of theirs will not harm them?
